aud William tenderly carried in the sick
woman and laid ber in the soft, comfortable
bed which my mother bad prepared.
Calling her into the library, hetold who
the strauger was. The shock was too great
fur ny mother, and she swooned apon the
floor. Upon recovering, she gazed wildly
alout marmuriug, “My Mary, my little one,
bave they brought you back?’
* Ob, how affecting was the meeting between my mother and ber long Jost daughter? and wheu I kissed my sister’s hand, I
felt that I would willingly give my life to
save hers,
* Mother.” she asked one day, “do tel!
me who was Emanuel Vallerino.”’
“My child,” said mother with a sigh, “he
was wy adopted brother, and only in that
light did [ ever regard him ; but he. unknowu
to me, loved me witb all the fever of his
passionate nature. He declared his effection
for me, but I told him I was the affianced of
your father. He then vowed before heaven,
if ever I became the wife of Hubert Austin,
, he would be avenged. I heeded not bis threat ,
, and soon after was married. A few years
. after you were bora you were stolen from us.
fu vain we searched in every direction, but
. could fiad no clue to our lost darling—and
‘long, loug, my Mary we bave mourned you
as dead.”’
The night wind wailed sadly around our
. home as the shadow of death deepened upou
the brow of his sister Mary.
. Father—William——Mother—-all coma

. See you all before I depart. Good-by, good. by,” she exclaimed, kissing us affectionately.

. Isee their arms ouistretched to greet me.
I bear the music of the heavenly Jerusalem.
Farewell earth-farewell, all that is dear
. to me, farewell. Almighty God, unto thee
I commend my spirit. Jesus, receive my soul. And with one faint gasp, the soul of my be. loved sister was wafted to the realms of
bliss.
It would be needless for me to picture our
griefather loss. It was heartfelt—eranest ;
'and poor William at that moment needed all
. our Lenderest sympathies.
“ Girls,” said Annt Ella, as she saw the
. tearful eyes of ber attentive auditors, “ this
. night is the anniversary of that death-bed
. Scene. Do you wonder, then. that I am sad?”
* Ob no, darling Aunt Ella,” they all ex. Claimed, “it was a scene too touching ever
. to be forgotten; but tell us, auntie, is dear,
. good Uncle William, who is always so kind,
yet sorrowful, the William of whom you
speak Sa
. “Yes, girls; be has never forgotten his

. “ Tlad we known we were inflicting pain,”’
. said the girls, sobbing , “we would not for a
. moment think of tormenting bim; but the
, future will show bow sorry we are for the

From that day many a blessing did Wil. liam Warrington bestow upon the fair young
. girls who sought to soothe bis melancholly,
